I'll take a shot of that cortisone, please

nothing new here, folks, except that my elbow throbs so much that even yoga bothers it.

the doctor asked for how long?

I guess I remember wearing the elbow brace pretty constantly on spring break in early March.

time for another shot, he said.

what movements hurt?

driving, I said. that's my main repetitive motion.

how sad.

If you want to get rid of your RSI, get a copy of It's Not Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Cortisone will address the symptom--swelling--but won't fix your problem. Unfortunately, most MDs don't study chronic musculoskeletal disorders, and so don't understand how to deal with them. The book will help you understand what's wrong and how to find an MD and physical therapist who know how to help you.

Thanks. That seems to be a much more sustainable approach to the problem.
